And the winner is...

The finale of Survivor 2 has America on edge

By Mike Nguyen

Thirteen castaways, three chickens and a rooster, and a pig have all gone down and now
we're left with three ultimate Survivor contestants.

One will go to the other side of the wretched (yet amazingly fun to watch)
Tribal Council as a jury member (wishing they could've won the
million) while two are forced to sit alone in front of the
fire with Jeff Probst and a rusty box.

Even worse, they've been sitting there for months!

Well, figuratively at least.

One of these two unknown finalists (as predictable as YOU think they might
be), will find out their millionaire status live on tv at the
ever popular season finale Survivor cast reunion.

Let's just hope CBS drops the suspense and just tell us already before we
get heart attacks.

Who's up for the money?

The three contestants left on the Outback are...Tina, the ever wise, kind,
and ever so backstabbing mother in her 40's. If she should make it to the Final
Two, which odds are for, most of the jury will favor her
greatly due to her kind and motherish ways. Be careful though Tina,
you've backstabbed and betrayed many to get here. But we don't mind, they
deserved to be there!

Colby, the strength of the Outback. Can this guy win the last immunity? Who
says he can't? He's up against two middle aged grown ups that are
starving while you've been pampered with food, cars, and
family visits for the past few weeks. Your Ogakor alliance
with Tina and Keith is over now, young one. Beware of
jealousy and betrayal by the remaining. Survive the Final Two, however, and you
are probably a shoe-in for the million, but we all know how Survivor
is...

Keith, or should I say Carrots. You've proposed on national television, and
touched our hearts but only after and before numerous screw ups,
ego trips, and challenge losing. Can you do anything
right? Maybe you don't have to, you've made it to the last
episode (even WITH our resentment). In pure Survivor
fashion, Keith might become the second Richard Hatch. How you'll get
Jerry's vote though Keith is beyond us.

Well, don't just keep reading this anymore, the show's on in a few hours!

Get out the Tiki torches and jump into that couch. Get ready for a two hour
ride of drama as the season finale of Survivor II: The Australian
Outback ends.
